Tiger Lily Hutchence expecting first baby
Tiger Lily Hutchence has confirmed she is expecting her first child.
The late INXS singer Michael Hutchence's only child has teased the news on Instagram.
Tiger's long-term boyfriend, British model Ben Archer, revealed the happy news when he shared an art show flyer featuring a visibly heavily pregnant Tiger on his Instagram Stories with the caption, "My love @heavenlytiger is doing a show."
The pair have been dating since June 2023.
Tiger, full name Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence Geldof, responded to the post about the show by replying "love you" alongside a hatching chick emoji.
Followers were quick to comment on the exciting news, with one posting, "The pregnancy! I can't take it!"
After the death of her father, Michael, in 1997, and mother, Paula Yates, who passed away following an accidental drug overdose in 2000, Tiger was adopted by Paula's ex-husband Sir Bob Geldof and his wife Jeanne Marine.
Tiger is an artist and musician, and has always been extremely close to her three Geldof half-sisters, Fifi Trixibelle, Pixie and the late Peaches.
Tiger was so devastated by Peaches' death in 2014, after an accidental overdose, that she wrote an album in her honour titled Tragic Tiger's Sad Meltdown.

Owner Leaves Dog Alone With Relaxing Music—Unprepared for What Petcam Shows
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A viral video of an American XL bully named Ragnar has warmed the hearts of viewers on TikTok—thanks to his hilariously chill reaction to some relaxing tunes. The video, which was posted to Instagram by the pet's owners on June 4, shows Ragnar fully sprawled out on his dog bed, front legs extended and head buried contently on the cushion, exuding total peace. An overlaid text on the video added more context: "Left my dog home alone with relaxing music… This is what I saw when I checked the camera… I think it worked." The caption read: "10/10 would recommend dog relaxing music!" There is some science behind the lighthearted post, because music—particularly classical music—is proven to have a soothing effect on dogs. Research by the Scottish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) and the University of Glasgow found that classical music can reduce stress levels in canines a significant amount. In the 2015 study, researchers observed dogs in a shelter and found a notable decrease in stress behaviors, such as barking and pacing, when classical music was played around them. The American Kennel Club also recommends soft classical or reggae music for dogs who suffer from separation anxiety, noting that the rhythm and tempo help promote a sense of stability and security. Since it was posted, the video from @ragnarthebullyxl has racked up over 400,000 likes and more than 1.4 million views on the platform. The comments section is flooded with users expressing laughter and amazement at the canine's tranquil state, with one commenter writing, "Dude's sleeping like he pays the bills." "'Pit bulls are mean' literally pit bulls:" Another viewer said. "Now I feel better for leaving my dog relaxing music," another added. "OMG I do this for my dog everyday when I'm out and she is always dead asleep," a third viewer shared. "Him sleeping like that while [you are] at work paying for that TV to stay on so he can listen to his music," another said. "This is literally what my dog does if not he's watching Bluey and people get made I leave him alone trust me he's living his life," another added.

Duchess Sophie Subtly Took a Side in William & Harry's Feud Amid Reports He Caused ‘Irreparable Harm' to the Royals
The drama in the British royal family has everyone taking sides. How could it not be so, considering King Charles is very sick, succession plans are reportedly underway, and Prince Harry is feuding with his father and his brother, Prince William, at the same time. Recently, reports surfaced that some royals might be looking to fix the rift between the brothers, among them Kate Middleton, but things remain frosty as of now. Prince Harry recently gave an interview in which he spoke openly about wanting to put the rift with his family behind him. 'I would love reconciliation with my family. There's no point continuing to fight any more, life is precious,' Harry said, explaining that the issue of security has 'always been the sticking point' in his recent family troubles. The Prince also said that while 'there have been so many disagreements between myself and some of my family,' he's now 'forgiven' them.

But whether the rest of the family feels the same remains to be seen. The Duchess of Edinburgh, Sophie, stepped out with Prince William for a joint engagement on June 6th, seemingly sending a message about where she stands, as she and her nephew smiled and looked to get along great during the joint appearance. The Duchess and the Prince attended the Royal Cornwall Show in Wadebridge, Cornwall, together. Prince William is patron of the association, while his aunt Sophie is the vice president. The two are not often paired for royal outings, which made it all the more remarkable that they attended together. Usually, if William is doing joint outings, it's with his wife Kate Middleton, and the same goes for Duchess Sophie with her husband, Prince Edward. Other royals have seemingly come in support of King Charles, and by extension, Prince William, recently. A few days after Prince Harry's interview, King Charles, Princess Ann,e and other members of the British royal family—including Prince William, Kate Middleton, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—were photographed watching the VE Day commemorations from their balcony at Buckingham Palace. Princess Anne's appearance with the family has also been interpreted as a sign of support. This comes as reports indicate William and Harry's relationship is irrevocably broken, and Prince William will look to take harsh action against his brother when he takes the throne. 'It's no secret William wants Harry more harshly dealt with. He thinks he has betrayed the family from top to bottom, which is the ultimate Windsor crime. It wouldn't take much to provoke him to flex his muscles when he is king,' a palace insider told The Daily Beast. Royal expert Hilary Fordwich also told Fox News that Harry's behavior has had quite an impact on the royal family and his reputation in the U.K. 'He is oblivious to the fact that his privileged upbringing was a blessing compared with most,' Fordwich said. 'His behavior is causing irreparable harm nationally, as he was once much loved and second in popularity only to his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.' She continued, 'He doesn't serve his country, he only serves himself. That is abhorrent to all the British and British values.' For now, it seems like the royals are sticking together. Well, all but Prince Harry, his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two kids.
